ROSTOV, RUSSIA  About 90 young single adults from across the Russia Rostov-na-Donu Mission gathered at a camp on the Sea of Azov in September for a conference that included workshops and a significant service project.

Highlight of the three-day conference was an address by Elder Douglas L. Callister of the Seventy and Europe East Area president. The theme of the conference was "Lighthouse of the Lord."

A talent show, dancing and athletic activities provided time and opportunity for single adult peers to become friends and enjoy Church associations on a larger scale. Managers of the resort expressed their appreciation and their regard for the behavior of the youth and their eagerness to provide service to the facility. Misha Lissov was among participants who spoke of the increase in his testimony because of the conference.
